"A few weeks after returning from the opening of our Mumbai store, we held one of our big open forum meetings where we get the entire company together. And as I tried to describe that moment for everyone, something came over me. I started to cry. ..

..In India, we'd had a chance to do something extraordinary, something truly world-class. And I am excited that we have a chance to grow and give back in a land where so much opportunity lies ahead and to contribute to making it a little better place than the one we found."

He did not stop there. He went on to add that he considers Tata to be a "man with so much grace." "I could sit and listen to Ratan Tata for days on end. He has so much wisdom and insight not only about India but about the world," he said.

Did you know that Tata’s foray into the beverage space goes back as early as May, 1963 when Tata-Finlay Ltd, Tata Group's tea, coffee, and spices business, was established as a joint venture with James Finlay and Company, a Scottish firm?

(1/4)
Since then the Tata group has grown organically and inorganically in the food beverage space. However, their holding structure with the group companies was very complex.

(2/4)
In 2017, when N Chandra took over the charge of Tata Sons and adopted a strategy to disentangle cross-holdings and simplify structures, the seeds of transformation in Tata Consumer products (erstwhile Tata Global Beverages) were sown.
